[comp.sys.mac.system] Applicon bombs for me too

triantos@acsu.buffalo.edu (Nick B Triantos) (05/30/91)

Hmmm...

I downloaded Applicon fresh off of comp.binaries.mac, and it unpacked just
fine.  My problem, though, is that every time I try to run it, I get an error
of type -199.  Any ideas?

On a somewhat related note, does anyone who's been able to obtain manuals
(Buffalo is sold out until about the year 3826, at which time MOS will probably
be at System 293 8-) ), anyway...Can anyone tell me if the manuals contain a
list of what all the little Apple errors actually mean?  From the small code
size point of view, I think displaying the error #'s are great, but I haven't
been able to figure out what -199, -192, -39, etc. could mean, and they're not
in my Webster's 8-).

Thanks much.

Well, I don't have the manuals, but from the 'System Errors' DA:

	-39   eofErr          End of file
	-192  resNotFound     Resource not found
	-199  mapReadErr      map inconsistent with operation

I don't know if the 'System Errors' DA is on any of the net archives, but I
imagine that it is.  I use it all the time to find out what some of the
cryptic error numbers mean.
